/// A directory in the filesystem that is automatically deleted when

///
/// The [`TempDir`] type creates a directory on the file system that
/// is deleted once it goes out of scope. At construction, the
/// `TempDir` creates a new directory with a randomly generated name,
/// and with a prefix of your choosing.
///
/// The default constructor, [`TempDir::new`], creates directories in
/// the location returned by [`std::env::temp_dir()`], but `TempDir`
/// can be configured to manage a temporary directory in any location
/// by constructing with [`TempDir::new_in`].
///
/// After creating a `TempDir`, work with the file system by doing
/// standard [`std::fs`] file system operations on its [`Path`],
/// which can be retrieved with [`TempDir::path`]. Once the `TempDir`
/// value is dropped, the directory at the path will be deleted, along
/// with any files and directories it contains. It is your responsibility
/// to ensure that no further file system operations are attempted
/// inside the temporary directory once it has been deleted.
///
/// Various platform-specific conditions may cause `TempDir` to fail
/// to delete the underlying directory. It's important to ensure that
/// handles (like [`File`] and [`ReadDir`]) to files inside the
/// directory are dropped before the `TempDir` goes out of scope. The
/// `TempDir` destructor will silently ignore any errors in deleting
/// the directory; to instead handle errors call [`TempDir::close`].
///
/// Note that if the program exits before the `TempDir` destructor is
/// run, such as via [`std::process::exit`], by segfaulting, or by
/// receiving a signal like `SIGINT`, then the temporary directory
/// will not be deleted.
